Human factors and usability issues have traditionally played a
limited role in security research and secure systems development.
Security experts have largely ignored usability issues--both
because they often failed to recognize the importance of human
factors and because they lacked the expertise to address them.
But there is a growing recognition that today's security
problems can be solved only by addressing issues of usability and
human factors. Increasingly, well-publicized security breaches are
attributed to human errors that might have been prevented through
more usable software....
